Youtube App does not work on Nexus One

The Youtube Apps stopped working on my Nexus One. I have the stock rom. I ask my friend to test his and his does not work either. He is using Cyanogen mod 5.0.5. Is anyone else having a problem using the Youtube App? Is there a fix for this? Thanks.

Works fine here.

Think you could be a little more specific about the issue? Saying it doesn't work doesn't tell us anything at all.

Sorry about that. When I try to view a video with the youtube app it opens, but nothings plays in the beginning. Sometimes the audio plays, but you see no video. If you skip forward, you will see the video stopped and the audio continues to play. I sometimes receive the error message: "Sorry, this video is not available". I have tried this using wifi and 3G with the same result. This also happens to videos I used to be able to play using the browser. Everything worked fine about a week ago. It seemed to just stop working all of a sudden.

Fine here (UK) on Wifi and as a bonus I just watched the chatroulette piano guy that was featured and it is brilliant so thanks for getting me to test so I could see that

in my experience, that happens when the video isn't formated (or format isn't available) for mobile screen/in mobile format/whatever.
nothing is wrong with the youtube app itself.

My problem with the YouTube app is that it often takes 'forever' to start playing the video! In fact, sometimes it will never start.
Somewhat embarassing when my wife's iPhone 3G can get to the same video and play it immediatly....

Have you tried watching in High Quality instead?
I have the same problem but in a different app, Tubedroid where downloaded videos can't be seen even though I can hear it. Turns out I can't download videos in HD, only high quality.

I hate this also. I pretty much gave up on YouTube which is crazy because you would think Google would support their own software the best.

Yeah, on stock youtube takes foorrrrrever to load up a video, even on a wifi connection. Oddly enough, the version that comes with Modaco's Desire ROM loads 'em up right fast. Weird.

[Q] MP3 Sound Issues on HTC HD7

Hello Everyone,
I am not sure if someone else had this issue. Its related to the default MP3\Video player on HTC HD7. If i dont open the Music & Videos for some time or may be days and when i choose to play music it does plays it but with no sound coming from spearks.
If i play a video at the same time the sound will be there if a call is coming the sound will be there, but only mp3 wont play.
And the only optio i am left with is to reboot the phone and then it again starts to work fine. I also tried checking after syncing the phone with Zune but nothing happened.
Can someone help me here with some clues or if someone else is also having this issue.

I'd call htc or your carrier. I have not run into that problem on my hd7 and I don't reset it for days at a time.

using HTC 7 Trophy
Having the same problem. but not just with audio files, but with Radio, too
My solution is the same: reboot

I dont think it has to do with carrier anyway as they are not streamed or something they have been synced from my PC using Zune. I dont even suspect the Hardware issue as at the same time other sounds plays perfectly fine. It looks to be a some kind of rare bug which is affecting only the chosen people.

Oh Sorry to hear that mate, i am lucky in that sense coz i tried my radio and it plays well in headset and speaker mode both and as i said even the Videos plays just fine. its only the MP3 that does not play sound. MP3 does play as i can see the time reducing and all and can play pause them only the sound is not there in speakers and not even in headphones.
I reboot and its again good to go. I hope some update comes out soon to fix it.

my point being is that calling the carrier might get you a new headset.

IT'S NOT THE HEADSET !!!
I tried a series of experiments yesterday and found 1 thing to reproduce the Problem:
Start Music Player (everything is fine)
Run a Game (for me it's Project Sunburst)
Stop the Game (Music still plays)
Stop (Pause) the Music Player
Run the Game again
Set "No Music" Settings in Game
Stop the Game
Start Music Player --> Music doesn't play
Even the current state of the paused file is stopped, and Music Player will start playing from the beginning of the file
i even found a solution to hear Music Files again
Start the Game
Enable Music in Game
Stop the Game
Start Music Player --> Music is heard again
ciao Skipper
BTW: Rado played fine when files didn't play, that was a little overzealous on my part, must have mixed it with some other problem, or didn't connect headset or something

Thats right in the case of ppl in US and some other countries but me being in India need not be bound with a Carrier or service provider, as Maximum of the handsets are available unlocked.
I bought it for some 640$ considering 1$ = 45 Rs. But yeah i got your point

Yeah May be i can try this and see if it works for me also.

@rj2Skipperr,
I tried the steps mentioned by you. But even after setting the volume to nil in games the mp3 continues to play. only difference is i did not have the game Projcet Sunburst. but other multiple games i tried.

yes the music file plays while I'm in the game if I started playback before game, but if I
stop(pause) music playback
start game (with no sound)
stop game
start music playback
I hear nothing (and file is played from the beginning)
("crackdown 2: project sunburst" is available vor testing in marketplace, and has (of course) the same effect on music as the buyed app)
ciao Skipper

i am unable to repro the issue with any given games, actually could not try sunburst. But other games i tried and also since the day i posted this question issue has occuredd only once and have never repeated.
I hope it stays like this and never comes back.

curious
Those that are having the sound trouble, did you also enable your device as USB storage? Because I've came across this same problem and it was after I had to fool with a couple of the registries. If so then more than likely that's the culprit.

It's a common and know issue of WP7. Mine does it also. I have to reboot mine to get sound back. This is one of many bugs WP7 has that MS refuses to address with an update.

For such a common problem, I haven't seen many threads about it here, on ppcgeeks, or wpcentral...
I have no doubt it is linked to people adjusting the ingame volume controls and that adjusting the overall volume control.
Not sure what there is to fix, maybe a separate volume control for games vs other multimedia???

Could be. But there certainly is something to fix. When you don't adjust in-game sound to zero yet the in-music sound is zero, there is something to fix. And when a reboot restores sound rather than keeping it the same, there is something wrong.

There is an app to fix this problem(free trail with adds). It's called: Media Volume Settings.

I think you are talking about hw+ decoder.
Would you send log file after hw+ failed? And are you using Google ROM?
I have a Nexus 10 with Google ROM, and could not find any issue with hw+.

If you installed any of the MX extra codecs, they aren't needed on the Nexus 7. If you are using stock Google ROMs, there shouldn't be any issues.
As bleu8888 said, download and run MX Log Collector, and run it immediately after the problem occurs. Post the logs here.

YouTube video freezes

I recently installed a Nougat ROM (Specifically this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/wip-aosp-nougat-nexus-5-t3446875) and after I did the youtube app has started acting up. Now after about a minute of video playback the video freezes, but the audio keeps playing. This happens for all videos and I can't find a way to make it stop. Before anyone asks...
-Yes, I tried flashing the file from the FAQ section of the post that contained the ROM.
-It isn't an internet problem. I've used the same internet for years and nothing's changed. It's been fine up till now (For reference, I'm getting 8mgps down and 28 up atm)
I use YouTube on my phone a lot, so getting this to work is important to me. Thank you for any help you give and for your time.

I had a similar issue. Try either updating it or downgrading the app. Downgrading worked for me

I tried this. Sadly, it didn't work. I've since switch to AOSPA and everything is fine over there. I'll come back around when this ROM is further developed.

I have the same issue, you could fix it?

[Bug][Resolved] Bluetooth media buttons not working

I just got a Google Pixel 6, upgrading from a Samsung Galaxy S7. I'm running MX Player Pro (Activated) version 1.42.13 (ARMv8 NEON).
Attached are the files that were generated when I hit the "Bug Report" button under More Settings. I tried hitting the "Save to File" option, but never got the confirmation message that one had been generated, and couldn't find a generated file in my phone. I've zipped them together and tried to name the file according to the expected zip filename.
On my previous phone (and whatever version of MX Player was on it) the play/pause/forward/back buttons on my headphones worked as expected.
I could also use those media controls when my phone was paired with my car.
They worked fine when the video was in the foreground, background, or in PiP.
Now on my new phone they aren't working. I'm not sure if I'm missing any permissions, or if there's been some other software change.
I've tried it on 2 different pairs of Bluetooth headphones and in my car, and the media buttons aren't working properly for any of them.
The same devices are working fine on other players (BlackPlayer EX and Youtube), so I believe this problem to be specific to MX Player, and not a fault with the Bluetooth devices or my phone.
If anyone knows a setting I could change that might fix this, I'm up to do whatever testing will help.
[Edit: Sometimes, if the app is playing in the background, the media buttons are able to pause it, but not unpause it. Again, other players seem to work as expected with the same BT devices.]

Seconded. Not working here either on a Samsung Galaxy S6 with activated Pro.

Toggling settings>Player>Media Buttons gets it working for a while.
Just noticed this thread after raising a new one. Doesn't respond to the buttons on my Fiio DAC

Do the devs even visit here?

Doesn't seem so - this Bluetooth issue is being reported all over yet works fine in VLC - also the chromecasting options in MXP suck compared to VLC. One wonders why I paid to activate Pro when VLC is free and is demonstrably better.

Yeah it's a joke. I reported this to them 4 weeks ago and it "may be fixed in a future update". Seriously?

I use Note 20 ultra, Android 12 & I faced the same problem.
My bluetooth headphone can not control the MX Player.
Nothing happend when press button on headphone.
When will this bug be fixed ???

Never by the looks of it. No update for months, nothing on the beta channel. This app is abandonware. Time to find sometjing else.

Now fixed in latest beta version 1.51.7

Confirmed, it's working on my headpones again as of release version 1.51.8 (ARMv8 NEON). Will test in my car this weekend, but I'll mark this as Resolved.
[Edit: Sometimes, if the app has been dismissed and the video's been paused for a while, it takes two Play presses for it to start again. I think this is on the app's end and not my Bluetooth device. Still, it's functional enough to be usable again, so I'm going to keep this marked as Resolved.]

It is unlikely that any dev will notice any random thread. There are two active Mixplorer threads. Posting in either will almost certainly get the attention of @HootanParsa when she returns.
(The only reason this thread came to my attention was someone quoting it in one of the Mixplorer threads.)
